France's Interior Minister Manuel Valls has ordered a ban on any further demonstrations against an anti-Islam film made in the United States.
Valls said on Sunday that he would prevent more anti-US demonstration in the country against the insulting film produced by an Israeli-American that disrespects Prophet Muhammad (PBUH).
"I have issued instructions so that this does not happen again. These protests are forbidden,” Valls said in an interview with France 2 television.
The minister went on saying that the government would fight more anti-US protests with “the greatest firmness."
His warning comes only a day after Muslim demonstrators staged a protest outside the US Embassy in Paris and the Interior Ministry to express their outrage at the blasphemous film that depicts Islam as an oppressive religion.
French police made 100 arrests in the capital for attending in anti-US protest.
Anti-US demonstrations, which began on September 11 over the anti-Islam film, have been held across the Muslim world, with protesters storming US embassies and torching US flags.
Muslims in Iran, Turkey, Sudan, Egypt, Yemen, Tunisia, Bangladesh, Indonesia, Malaysia, Kashmir, Pakistan, India, Iraq, Gaza, Morocco, Syria, Kuwait, Nigeria, Kenya, Australia, Britain, the United States, France, Belgium, and some other countries have held many demonstrations to condemn the insulting movie.
